ruby mag

The new issue of rubymag is up, and I'm humbled to be one of the featured artists. I appreciate the format-- entirely visual. Even though I have a verbal streak, I sometimes hate artist's statements. I'm not supposed to say that as an art teacher, but I do think that the languages of image and text sometimes harmonize and other times jar one another. There's a reason, often, that a visual artist hasn't chosen the path of a writer... because they're clearly more fluent in visual rather than verbal language. So it's nice to just get a shot of pure image. Plus, I almost always respond to the majority of work rubymag posts. It's evocative, international and diverse. So. Check it if you want a shot in the eye. (The image above is by Irana Douer, the Argentina-based editor)

Also, I failed to post this prior to the opening, but a suite of my work is hanging with Allegoric friends in Chicago at Architrouve for the rest of the month. If you're in the neighborhood...
